  2. They’re closed alright. Out of business that is.

    I bought something from them. Same price as their catalog. But if you need it, then you need it. Good quality parts.

    I'm hoping that they've sold all the IP to another vendor, it just doesn't make sense to me to shut down a profitable business.

    Weedetr parts are outstanding. Used his rearend kit and trans crossmember kit. Plus Dale offers great customer service.

    I was just there today. They are packaging up the last of the orders they had taken to see what is there for inventory. There are several interested parties. Everything is for sale but the name. Someone will end up with the engineering drawings, and whatever it takes to keep producing the product under a different name. If I find out more I will keep you posted.

    Sad to see them close. I have used many of their parts for years. A local shop here was closing out some stuff and I bought 4 sets of their motor mounts for a Chevy in 35-40 Fords-was glad to get them. I have used many sets in the past and always liked their products.
